Her Lilac Quilt by Rachel Lebo
Kling Family Gallery West
Exhibition Dates: Now through July 2024
In the recently upgraded and newly named Kling Family Gallery West, you can now view this vibrant and colorful exhibition by Rachel Lebo, Her Lilac Quilt. Lebo, who finds it more informative and effective to be someone else, has dedicated this exhibition to a character named Marina. In these paintings, you can learn things about who Marina is as she carves out her own identity in her newly cohabited space with her boyfriend. From her Jeffrey Campbell thigh highs and pink dress to her love for art and sports, Marina is an enigma wrapped in a quilt of contradictions that she knits together with ease.

Manna by Sarah Bernhardt
Kling Family Gallery East
Exhibition Dates: Now through July 2024
Don’t forget to look down! While the vitrines may look empty, you will be pleasantly surprised as you walk upon these beautiful and reflective pieces of art carefully organized and designed by St. Louis native, Sarah Bernhardt. Manna explores the synergy between Wonder and Knowledge. In particular, through this lens, Bernhardt studies the capacity for incredibly small moments of wondering at nature to be restorative and sustaining, even awe-inspiring, for the human soul.
About the Artist: Bernhardt is a St. Louis based artist, educator, and administrator exploring photography, video, installation, and social practice. She received her MFA from Washington University in St. Louis, taught at University of Missouri St. Louis, and St. Louis University. In 2013 Bernhardt founded Intersect Arts Center, an arts space focused on nurturing accessibility to the arts and relationship building across diverse communities. Bernhardt continues to direct the space, curating, developing education programs, maker spaces, artist studio spaces, as well as community events and projects.
